Seeing force
Force
A push or pull.
Push
Using force to move something away from you.
Pull
Using force to bring something towards you
Movement
When something starts to move.
Friction
A force that slows things down.
Gravity
A force that pulls things down to the Earth.
Magnetic Force
A force made by a magnet that can pull or push things without touching them.
Effect of Force
The change that happens because of force.
Direction
The way something moves (left, right, up, down).
Speed
How fast or slow something moves.
Change of Shape
When force makes something bend, stretch, or squash.
Main Points :
We cannot see force, but we can see what it does.
Force can move things.
Force can stop things.
Force can make things go faster or slower.
Force can change the direction of a moving object.
Force can change the shape of things (stretch, bend, squash).
Different kinds of forces exist: gravity, friction, magnetic force, push, and pull.
Interesting points:
Force is invisible, but it is always around us—every second!
Even when you are sitting still, forces are working (gravity pulls you down, the chair pushes you up).
Magnets can move objects without touching them—that is a force you can see working from far away.
Air can push! Airplanes fly because fast-moving air creates lift, a kind of force.
Friction keeps us safe—without friction, you would slip while walking!
Gravity works everywhere—it even keeps the Moon moving around the Earth.
A small force can start a big movement—like a tiny push to a swing that makes it go high.
Forces can work together or against each other—that decides how an object moves.
You use force all day—opening doors, writing with a pencil, tying your shoes, lifting your bag.
Force decides everything in motion—why things move, stop, fall, float, or slide.
